What pressure should a manhole vacuum test be?
When a vacuum of 10 inches Hg is drawn on a manhole, an internal pressure of roughly -5 psig, or 10 psia, is created. The atmospheric pressure on the exterior of the manhole (15 psia) will thus exert 5 psi differential pressure on all surfaces, joints and connectors as illustrated in the following animation.
What is the procedure of a vacuum test?
